well i think before gst hit everyone already kena on the exchange rate.

Heck thailand/sg now everything 10-15 percent more expensive due to exchange rate.

2 drops of Mayhem's into 1.5L of water. 7 months and still going.

distilled water+ nothing = 3 month maintenance
You'll start to see your reservoir turning yellow at 2-3 months. By then it's already too late even if you change the water.

distilled water+ biocide = 4 month maintenance
7 months and still going without a water change.

distilled water+ silver coil = ? month maintenance
My experience with silver plug was about 6-8 months. The silver plug was covered with some algae or whatever, rendering it useless.

hmmm..

Not sure about that bro. Been using shell battery water for quite some time n nvr had yellowish/gunk

Although i normally do a 2 full bleeds, check blocks,pump, 2 more bleed when i first install.

Arghh that time if the year again n worse for some unknown reason my cpu block stands ine was dislodged from the backplate. Did a temp fix but temps were 15c difference on load only. Suspect clp issue. So just resitting n reapplyinh clp.

6 hrs of my life gone. Lol.

Did you add something to ur shell battery in loop?
some time = 1 year?

No main rig is now 4 months but i changed the water just now because of the cpu issue. CLP lol dont move the block even a little for delid.

Always got some reason within a year to bleed. So never reach 1 year.

Change GC, CPU, etc..

Maintenance of the WC in my opinion is to make sure the block flow path are not hindered. So Just did the check just now by removing all blocks, cleaning each one etc.

Another thing to note WC rigs . Try not to use ceiling fan in the room. Aircond or stand/table fan.

Here is a pic after four months 24/7 use before cleaning and resetting the cpu block. ( BTW i know i need to change those two sata cables.. but to find a 90-120cm sleeved cables.. hmm will take some time.. so until i order more stuff will put that in want list)

demciflex and that no ceiling fan rule. keeps dust away. Rads had demciflex filters

why~

aircond guy explain to me lol..

he said ceiling fan creates a vortex around the room that attracts new dust everytime you open the door/window

hence y they always said dont use aircond with ceiling fan.
same with wc. filters will clean off existing dust.

hence y u see mine so clean still. baby wipe 5 minutes all done. rad no dust.

Well it could be due to several factors.

1. I didn't clean my loop properly and I do admit that I'm not as tedious as I'd like to be.  sweat.gif
2. I'm running a LED strip in my loop behind the reservoir which could also contribute the algae growth.

We're just stating our personal experiences, yours definitely seems a lot better than mine but I've had successful results with biocide and since it's not that expensive, I'll stick with it.

dont think anyone can say 100% sure of anything in wc.

one thing i dread everytime. Lifting the damn thing. TJ11 was not meant to be hold. Pretty sure 900D is the same.

Why 3/8" 5/8" bro?
From the tenet, most of them said just go for tube you like.. tube size  make no different
*
exactly hence go

3/8 5/8 easier to route etc especially a mid case. Rarely you will need angle fittings etc.

late you see how thick that hose is and its creating unnecessary pressure on fittings when you bend it and sambung.

rarely u see ppl using 1/2 3/4 nowadays. Last time it was a thing for cpu block to have " high flow design " for it. Myth.

If you know where to look, there's Barrow fittings.
They're apparently OEM of Bitspower but much cheaper. Just don't blame me when they leak.  smile.gif

Dunno how many times so call expensive bitpower fittings had leaks. Angle fittings n orings always need to double test it.

Got nearly 2-3k worth of bits fittings . It was that experience that led me to a sabatical from wc.

Suprisingly smooth sailing with monsoon so far
